How to Apply for Family Housing

The housing application process and timeline for students who are applying to housing with a spouse/domestic partner and/or child(ren) are different than they are for other residents. Beginning Fall 2025 – Spring 2026, students living in family housing will be limited to two academic year contract terms and two summer terms.

Please remember that housing is not required and not guaranteed for any student.
